Web Slings with Hooks
Securely hook these slings to a load that has lift attachments. Lightweight and flexible, web slings are less likely than other slings to mar, scratch, or dent fragile loads. They include a tag that shows the material, length, and capacities in each configuration. Made of nylon, these slings stretch to minimize shock to the load and withstand greasy conditions.
Note: Do not use multi-leg slings at an angle less than 30°.
Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
